Overview

Food & Wine Trails is delighted to welcome Napa Valley’s acclaimed Mending Wall Winery aboard its inaugural wine cruise in 2028. Throughout this exceptional journey, you’ll have the opportunity to savor distinctive Mending Wall wines crafted by celebrated winemaker Thomas Rivers Brown, accompanied by winery host Erin Lynn for private onboard tastings and special wine events.

Your journey begins in Rome, the “Eternal City,” where you’ll step aboard Oceania Cruises’ elegant, all-veranda ship, Allura, for a ten-day circumnavigation of Italy and the Mediterranean. From the sun-drenched Amalfi Coast, sail south to Messina, Sicily—the gateway to Taormina and the remarkable wine-growing slopes of Mount Etna—before discovering the extraordinary cultural heritage of Malta.

Continue to ancient Igoumenitsa, Greece, and along the Adriatic to Bar, Montenegro, home to a remarkable 2,000-year-old olive tree believed to be the oldest in Europe. In Croatia, explore three captivating ports and experience a wealth of UNESCO World Heritage Sites, each revealing another layer of the region’s rich history and culture.

From Italy’s legendary coastlines to the vineyards of Sicily and the storied shores of the Adriatic, this promises to be a truly memorable celebration of wine, cuisine, culture, and discovery. Your journey concludes in Trieste, the elegant capital of Italy’s Friuli-Venezia Giulia region—an inspiring finale to an unforgettable Mediterranean adventure.
